Money and the art sector, it’s a combination which is usually only made possible via subsidies. In Amsterdams the Fonds voor de Kunst (Fund for the Art) starts an online platform next year where everyone can sponsor artprojects. Sounds familiar, no? It’s exactly the reaon why Sellaband will be helping the fund.
The yet untitled platform will focus first on the Amsterdam based art sector but will enlarge to other parts of the Netherlands if it reveals to be a succes. But… unlike with Sellaband this platform will not generate money for the ‘believers’. And that’s also the first and most important hurdle they’ll have to take.
SellaBand.com first launched in August 2006. The new SellaBand Fan Funding model launched 1st October 2009 and allows artists to raise any budget for any project. Artists are in control and retain all rights. Revenue Share is optional.
